Hi all!
Installed 2.0 community, Win 7 64 bit.
Unable to open console http://localhost:8091/
http://localhost:8092/ ok {"couchdb":"Welcome","version":"1.2.0a-be4fa61-git","couchbase":"2.0.0-1976-rel-community"}

Checking E:\Couchbase\Server\var\lib\couchbase\logs\info.1, and keeps writing

[ns_server:warn,2012-12-19T12:18:06.981,ns_1@169.254.175.226:dist_manager<0.272.0>:dist_manager:is_good_address:81]Cannot listen on address `169.254.175.226`: eaddrnotavail
[ns_server:info,2012-12-19T12:18:06.981,ns_1@169.254.175.226:dist_manager<0.272.0>:dist_manager:wait_for_address:100]Configured address `169.254.175.226` seems to be invalid. Giving OS a chance to bring it up.
[ns_server:error,2012-12-19T12:18:07.995,ns_1@169.254.175.226:dist_manager<0.272.0>:dist_manager:init:148]Configured address `169.254.175.226` seems to be invalid. Will refuse to to start for safety reasons.

with ifconfig /all (i already knew, but just in case) i have NO 169.254.whatever address.

Cheers!

It looks like at the time when you installed Couchbase, your ethernet/wifi device had a "self-assigned" IP... The 169.* range is usually the self-assigned range.

You will need to do a simple IP fix for Windows, to set Couchbase to use 127.0.0.1.

Instructions can be found here: http://www.couchbase.com/docs/couchbase-manual-2.0/couchbase-bestpractice-cloud-ip.html

It looks like Windows can have "invisible" interfaces with link local addresses automatically assigned. Couchbase is incorrectly picking them up instead of searching further for something more real. I've filed a bug, http://www.couchbase.com/issues/browse/MB-7417
